Dinner with Emeril...Lagasse of course!

My best friend, Marsha and her husband Kirk were joining us for dinner.

Hmmm.....what to prepare?
Since I had some potatoes that I wanted to use up and some fresh salmon from H Mart... I googled "Salmon and Potato Casserole" and came upon
Emeril Lagasse's tempting recipe.

It was delicious...I tweaked it a bit (only because of the ingredients in my kitchen) but it turned out fabulous! It smelled so good when it came out of the oven...that I forgot to take a picture until we had already busted into it! Four people and we ate half a casserole!

And for Dessert? Gotta use up those browning bananas...so... voila...

"Banana Walnut Cookies with Lemon Icing".


I wasn't sold on the lemon icing...but they were totally yummy!
The flavors blend perfectly!
By the time a couple of my daughters showed up later with a few friends...
the cookies were gone!

Leave me your email address if you would like either of the recipes and I will be happy to send it to you!

  6. Both look real yummy. Unfortunately...my family are not salmon fans. They're no fun but I would love the cookie recipe if it is not to much trouble. Plz send to amyh549@yahoo.com.

  9. OK, so now I'm totally tasting (in my mind) those cookies! And the salmon casserole? Sounds great(can't tell you how pretty it is, but the sign of a good casserole is that it's dug into"!

  12. I love salmon but it is not my other 1/2's favorite. That sure sounded like a very yummy comfort food. How fun to enjoy a nice homemade meal with good friends.
    Love, Diane
